Do the words &#8220;the day after Thanksgiving&#8221; bring joy to your heart?  Then get your rest tonight.  The BIG sale day of the holiday season is upon us.<br \/>\nI won&#8217;t be joining you.  Personally, I&#8217;d rather go to a mall on a Tuesday morning at 9:30, when not another soul is around, other than the sales people.  I don&#8217;t like the hunt or the crush, and I don&#8217;t need to know that I ripped the very last Baby Bumpkins out of another woman&#8217;s hand, to win the shopper of the day award.<br \/>\nThat doesn&#8217;t mean I don&#8217;t like to make purchases for less.  I&#8217;m not convinced that you can&#8217;t save just as much on other days of the year.  The traffic alone is enough to make me shake in my boots.  The thought of all those accidents just waiting to happen, and all the road rage, is all I need to keep me firmly planted at home.<br \/>\nSo, tomorrow, when all of YOU are out there, braving the crowds, I&#8217;ll be at home working on quilts.  I&#8217;ll finish the Thanksgiving clean up, and I might even start some of the holiday decorating, but I WON&#8217;T be shopping.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m giving my feet a rest, and having a mental health day too.  I encourage you to give it some thought.  Let&#8217;s start a &#8220;Down with Shopping the Day After Thanksgiving&#8221; society.  You have my permission to buy as many gifts on-line as you want prior to Thanksgiving.  In return, you promise not to shop the day after Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you a sale maven?
